    Whats the deal with tie length these days?

    Fabric cheapskates ? I was pleased that my most recent ties, wool Strathmore tartan ties, turned out to be 60 inches (152.4 cm.) in length. I'm six feet (183 cm.) tall and always tie a Windsor knot. I think this length is right for me what with a 17 inch (43 cm.) neck. Some of the ties I...

    Australian Dollar weak again...

    Food for Thought I generally spell it "Arrgh !" Looking at the graph at xe.com, the AUD was as low as 0.78 USD in the last year and as high as 0.937 USD. That's an over 20% change, low to high. If the House of Cards freshly created in the U.S. to protect the people Franklin Roosevelt...

    Australian Dollar weak again...

    Australian dollar up v. U.S. dollar Some ordered the $90.00 Australian hat at $72.85 U.S. :) Sadly, some waited. :eek: (Okay, it isn't that big a deal.) The Australian dollar has climbed to just under $0.85 U.S. as of this posting. Track the gyration of the world's currencies ...

    Akubra Campdraft

    Good news there ! I would have been wallowing in exclusivity with my size 60 bluegrass green CD, but I confess that I'm pleased that you'll have yours, too. They are worth the wait.

    WWII Espionage

    News from Bletchley :D OK, this is Intelligence, broadly speaking, and not Espionage, in the conventional sense. I see those of us who enjoy original material will be in for a good time. This probably bodes well for another round of good WWII histories, and I'm all for it. Three cheers...

    Akubra Campdraft Question

    Camp Draft stiffness I expect you will have no beef with the Camp Draft (Campdraft ?) over the issue of stiffness. I have four CD's (C's ?) and a couple of Stylemasters. If you need to, work the hats after a spray of distilled water. But you probably won't need to do that. Enjoy !

    Akubra Campdraft

    Campdraft in Bluegrass Green Marvelgoose - The Campdraft in Bluegrass Green is much to be desired. I really like mine. I assume that if your order was accepted that you have made the cut, notwithstanding later developments. Greetings from Thomasville.

    Akubra Overload

    Looks great ! By the way. with the U.S. dollar strong against the Australian dollar as it is now, 1.00 AUD = .832900 USD right now, it is time to order the Akubra you've had your heart set on. My Campdraft in silver belly is in the works.

    Show us your radios!

    Practical Magic I'm still admiring LizzieMaine's RCA. It's great to see a nice old radio brought back from the dead. My older sets are never run at the house AC line voltage of 122 to 125 volts. Instead I use either a Variac or step-down isolation transformer to bring the source voltage to...
